The Zhivago Affair: The Kremlin, the CIA, and the Battle Over a Forbidden Book by Peter Finn

4.0

Apparently Dr. Zhivago is having a renaissance of sorts. I bought this book months ago and then Reece’s Bookclub has a new book about the CIA and Dr. Zhivago called, The Secrets We Kept. I wanted to compare both books. And I learned a few new things... one should read it to see how Gloria Steinem is tied into the CIA, Russia and Dr. Zhivago. I think it’s interesting that the CIA smuggled in the published book into the Soviet Union to upset their government and today the Russians spam us with fake news to upset our government. While history does not repeat itself, it sure does rhyme.
